Daily status report?

[Robert Arends]

We needed an 8:30am daily email/pager message that gave a quick
synopsis.

So I wrote some perl to use a Nagios tool called "nagiostats" and email
the results nicely formatted.

nagiostats -m
--data=NUMHSTUP,NUMHSTDOWN,NUMHSTUNR,NUMSVCOK,NUMSVCCRIT,NUMSVCUNKN

<CODE>
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
        my $options =
'NUMHSTUP,NUMHSTDOWN,NUMHSTUNR,NUMSVCOK,NUMSVCCRIT,NUMSVCUNKN';
        my $command = "nagiostats -m --data=$options";

        my @result = `$command`;
        chop(@result);

</CODE>

So now the results are in an array $result, put the following into a
print(), or an email routine, etc to send it to the suits.

<EXAMPLE Variables>
        HOSTS:
        Down:$result[1]
        UnReachable:$result[2]
        Up:$result[0]

        SERVICES:
        Critical:$result[4]
        UnReachable:$result[5]
        Up:$result[3]

</EXAMPLE Variables>

I run the program at 8:30 am every day.  For us it is used by the
monitoring staff, but you could use it for suits.

You could just use shell script and 'nagiostats' with out the -m, and
GREP out the lines you want and pipe in to mail.
